Took me over 8 months to rebuild the 2056 and it runs sweet! Damn Jake that cam rocks! killer powerband up to the 5800 rev limiter. Couldn't get the oil temps over 180 either.....
Broke in the cam for twenty minutes then drove around to seat the rings in freakin out the neighborhood. Sheeet, that new gear setup (3rd and 4th outta a 912 close ratio box) is killer. Shifts up thru the gears is way more funner so I can't wait to get on the track. I forgot how quick the car is after 8 months of sitting, and now its even faster. Maybe I'll remove the rev limiter to see how it revs up. I am keeping my fingers crossed as no freakin oil leaks yet.

Aaron, I had a flipped ZD in there and felt there was too short between 2nd and 3rd and too long between 3rd and 4th. Went to a "M" 3rd and a "S" 4th so its mo' better. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/piratenanner.gif)
With the 205x15 tires the tranny feels like I am in the powerband alot more as I go thru the gears. You'll see Jacco, I have been running the 2056 for 5 years. I toasted the rings overreving at a track event missing a shift. Jake provided a new set of pistons with better rings sealing along with a Jake FI cam/lifters. Heads were sent to HAM to be checked over and Len changed out the upgraded springs/retainer/keepers. I was trying to get 500rpms of power over the stock setup which dies at 4500rpms. Hoe gaat het? (see I do know alittle Dutch although writing and pronouncing it is really hard!) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) Engine mods 96x71 with Jake pistons and rings Jake 9550 cam with new lite lifters 26mm oil pump Heads have 42x38 SS valves with 911 swivel feet adjusters, HS single springs,HDretainers, HD retainers 9to1compression Deleted retard on the dizzy Vacuum advance hooked up 2.0L SS HE's with a Bursch muffler I dyno'd this engine before (4yrs ago) at 95hp at the rear wheels so now I am thinking its 100hp at the rear wheels as its got even more kick! Plus I want to see the dyno sheet with the torque and hp curve to see if I really picked up alittle more hp at 5000-6000rpms. I'll run it at the next PCA dyno day locally to see. I know I won't be able to keep up with Eddie914 on the straight with his 3.2L but atleast I won't get passed in the first 200 ft coming out of turn one. |
